Verkhnotoretske, Urban settlement in Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine
Located at an elevation of 132 meters, Verkhnotoretske spans across 1.825 square kilometers in eastern Ukraine, near the Krywyj Torez river.
Established in 1772 at a former Cossack winter camp site, Verkhnotoretske received its urban-type settlement designation in 1938 and was known as Skotuwata between 1963 and 1978.
The settlement reflects the transition from rural to urban development in Ukraine, with residents maintaining connections to both agricultural traditions and industrial activities.
The railway station in Verkhnotoretske serves the transportation line connecting Yasynuvata to Kramatorsk, providing essential regional connectivity for residents.
Following Ukraine's 2023 administrative reforms, Verkhnotoretske will transition from its Soviet-era urban-type settlement classification to a new settlement designation.
